Why?
One - that deep deep voice (Is that still alto? contralto? whatever, it's deep).
Two - the oboe. So yearning, so beautiful.
Three - the atmosphere in the video, like Dorothea Lange's Dust Bowl photographs translated to South America.
Four - the song. It's one of very few where everything comes together for a perfect piece of music.

Whole album's pretty good, actually. Poor Cow is a bit preachy, but otherwise good.
Sang backing vocal's on Nanci Griffith's "It's Late". Bit of trivia for you there!

Wasn`t that album produced by one of the Mechanics? Peter Van Hooke?

Van Hooke and Rod Argent, yes, I think they also produced the Nanci Griffith album I mentioned, hence the B Vox I guess.

Had a huge crush on Susanne Vega back in the day and love this song.

R.E.M. Live in Madrid - Drive
Michael Stipe had, I think, a sore throat that day and a very raspy voice, but boy does he deliver! My favourite version of the song.
That sent me down an R.E.M rabbit hole over the weekend. Big Fan

Wolfgang Van Halen's debut "Mammoth WVH"...remarkable debut showing that the apple doesn't fall from the tree!

Currently listening a lot to the new albums by Ray Wilson and Hackett. Great stuff and highly recommended!

Another great album by Apocalypse.
Did you get this one too or found it on YouTube?
There is a Live in Rio DVD and CD out there but they are much better in the studio.
I love this Marillion clone

I got all their albums now, I really like this band. I first heard it on YouTube to see if I would like it and I did. Thanks for the recommendation since you posted this first.
